2017 Hyundai Veloster

The longest Ive kept a car

Thursday, July 06, 2017

Although it was only a few years that I had the Veloster, I had no intention of giving it up until I wrecked it. I cannot think of a single thing I could complain about except the occasional rattles and the right front speaker regularly going bad. But with that warranty, its hard to go wrong. The 6 speed was a gas to drive too.

Fun little car that saves on gas

First let me say, I am very picky when it comes to my vehicles. I only drive manuals, it's just my preference. The pickings are pretty slim and take out cars with epb's, there's even less. I traded a 2019 corolla for this car and 2 years later am still happy with that decision. The third door allows you into the back seat while still keeping the sport hatch feel. The trunk has more space than other email cars. The mpg is all in how you drive, I average 26mpg. I know mileage is still pretty low but I've not had one single mechanical or electrical issue out of her, this may change in the future as some people mention issues but we'll see. It's fun to drive, with the ability to get up and go when needed but still cruise and save gas. The rspec and rally have awesome suspension for the class and you can hug curves while keeping all wheels down. This is my daily driver and she's been on some road trips. This was a great choice for me to get the driver experience I wanted and still have all the options newer cars were offering. I plan on keeping it as long as I can, an absolute joy to drive and never a worry of major mechanical fault.

The veloster feels like a suped-up Accent. the styling is sporty with economical 1.6 L engine. I like the stereo with usb drive functionality.
